It's getting hard to enjoy
All the things I did back when I was employed
And every week I wait for a call
From my boss to tell me that there's work for me in the fall
Two checks a month from the man upstairs
Keeping me fed in my underwear
Anticipate the day Dan Belanger
Calls to say that he needs me first thing on Monday
It's been a while and now my wallet's light
I wish I had the means to try to put up a fight
And now I wait for all of this to end
Knowing full well I'm giving up all of my weekends
I can't wait to walk through that door
Five days a week
Gratification and more
I can't want to make my muscles sore
I just want to go back to my job
It's been a while and now I fear
The day will come when I run out of beer
It's not enough for me, I might go broke
If I don't limit the way I purchase whiskey and coke
With all this time you think my house would be clean
It'd probably be if I could just go back to my routine
I do my best but I get annoyed
At the things I can't afford when I'm unemployed

Ur Mean(s)

The longest days make for shorter years
All these hours will grind my gears
We've made some cash now we have demands
Let's get a house, acquire land
You can't buy happiness but we still can seize the day
You say "it's not like that' you'll still be here either way
I know the truth behind it, you don't want me for my jeans
But that's okay, I wouldn't mind it if you just lived within your means
Things are getting old, our stuff's a mess
We picked one out, it seemed the best
Buy outright or rent to own
Who gives a fuck, I want the newest phone
You can't buy happiness this will maybe have to do
I know it's a lot right now but I think we'll make it through
I know the truth behind it, you don't want me for my jeans
But that's okay, I wouldn't mind it if you just lived within your means

My Friend James

My friend James
He wants a conservatives girl
But it's too bad they all think he's gay
Maybe it's his shirt
Or maybe it's the shorts
None of us can really say
My friend James
He tried his luck with scene girls
But they assume that he's alt-right
Maybe it's his friends
Or maybe it's his views
Either way they're out of sight
My friend James
He just wants a really nice girl
But there's something in his way
Maybe it's his views
Or maybe it's his friends
None of us can really say
I think he'll figure it out one day

No Brainer Retainer
02:07

I got myself in trouble
I had a little run-in with the law
A single phone call's all I need
Call my attorney tell him what I saw
But he's got bad news for me
He says there's been a discrepancy
Although he'd love to help
Criminal defense is not his specialty
With Gordon at Law, I thought I had it made
Endless access to legal aid
But he won't get me out of jail
He doesn't think that I can post the bail
Yeah he's got bad news for me
He says there's been a discrepancy
Although he'd love to help
A case like this his outside his expertise
Time and time again I witness apprehension
I get no time-of-day or even consultation
Administrative law is what he does career and passion
Gordon at Law
You can't ignore all our history
That we've been friends since we were thirteen

3-Car Garage
05:22
|
|||
|
I want a real big house in a nice neighbourhood
I want a swimming pool and a tennis court
Three car garage and six foot hedge for my privacy
Neighbours won't complain when I'm smoking bowls outside
I want a real nice car that goes really fast
I don't care about fuel economy
With a sunroof or maybe a convertible
All the things that I'd buy if I only had a bit more time in the day
I want a fancy boat, take my buds on the lake
I want surround sound in my home theatre
A private gym and a guest house for my friends and family
All the things that I'd buy if I only had a bit more time in the day

B.O. and Patchouli
01:59
|
|||
|
I know this girl with short green hair
She really rocks out when I see her at the shows
But I don't think that she is my type
She's got this dog and he is my friend
But she feeds him vegan food
She looked at my funny when I bought her a drink
Every time she talks to me she mentions anarchy
I can never get a date with her cuz she's always rallying
Sometimes I think that her and I are meant to be
But she's angry at the world
She's not the one for me
I can talk to her for hours
Yeah she really turns me on
But I don't like B.O. and patchouli
She keeps up for toke for toke
But she tells me that I drink too much
When I held open her door yeah she told me to fuck off

Forget About It
02:38
|
|||
|
Let's have a drink and forget about it
The world sucks, what can we do about it?
Fuck being sad, let's get on with our lives
So much on your mind today
War and poverty, what will the government say?
Well I think it might all be a crock of shit
We've got school, work and families
Taxes, loans and financial insecurities
Sometimes too much is too much

ALL COPS ARE BROS
03:21
|

Another quiet night in a tranquil part of town
Patrolling squad cars on behalf of the crown
Front door open, lawn furniture on the ground
Maximum thirty clicks, no riff raff to be found
Authority watches over me
Securing the greater good of the commonwealth
You lost your child now the cops they are your friends
A few bad apples and it might seem like a trend
Most cops just do their job, they'll arrest if you offend
If you get out of jail, don't go back again
Two hands on the wheel not staring at your phone
Too many beers yeah you don't go on the road
Just smoked a joint you should probably stay at home
Seems unlikely to catch a bullet in the dome
Authority watches over me
Watches over you
You lost your child now the cops they are your friends
Too many bad apples and it might seem like a trend
Most cops just do their job, they'll arrest if you offend
If you get out of jail, don't go back again
Oh yeah

Selling Out
02:11
|
|||
|
Some of our fans say we're not what we used to be
They say we've changed but we always knew success was key
That's why we've made a choice that we stand by
Be a band most can identify
Selling out
Front page of the magazine
Selling out
Backstage documentary
Selling out
Successful in the industry
Selling out
Sounds just fine by me
And when we're there we'll still be the same old band
Some disagree but we decide on where we stand
That's why we're going to diversify
Be a band most can identify

Occupado
03:04
|
|||
|
Mom says that I shouldn't trust the government
As if I got no clue who pays her rent
She says I should go out and have some fun
But time for play is when the job is done
No one understand I'm about my education
One of the days I'll have a better paying occupation
Dad says son sit down let's have a beer
But putting on his shoes is my worst fear
He says I should find myself a girlfriend
But I know I will strike gold in the end

Do It Right
01:23
|
|||
|
Gotta do it right
Clean your house
Mow your lawn
Have a sense of pride
Go to work
Pay your tax
This isn't a free ride
Move forward
Not back
Have your goals in mind
Break your back
Save your dough
You can still enjoy your life

Alcohol/Narcotics
03:01
|
|||
|
So what if I'm an alcoholic?
I pay my bills on time and I live an honest life
So what if I smoke too much chronic?
I buy it legally, you know I get the job done right
Some say that there's equity in always staying true
Life's no charity, my time is precious too
So what if I drink gin and tonic
I tip my servers well yeah they know me all by name
So what if I like my narcotics
I'm never driving high, I'm always trying to play safe

Not Get Laid
01:56
|
|||
|
I don't want to get laid
I just want to get paid
Cuz at the end of the day
I'll be paving my own way
Leisure is not the life for me
College tuition isn't free
You can't let chances pass you by before you die
Go go go
I gotta get to work on time
Go go go
To earn myself another dime
When you get down to it
Success comes bit by bit
Just do your best to win
And you might be next of kin
I just want to make cash
But not spend it all on hash
I don't care about honeys
I just want to make money

Go Out and Vote
02:07
|

|
Go out and vote
That's all she wrote
Democracy is not an atrocity
It's more than just a philosophy
It's your way against bureaucracy
For the sake of humanity
Autocracy is our worst enemy
We can grow in solidarity
You must maximize your opportunity
For the sake of your community
